It’s no secret that I love, love, LOVE photographing senior sessions. And Carson’s Missoula urban summer senior session definitely fit the bill! He, his mom, Kelli, and I all had a great time meandering around Missoula, finding the best little nooks and crannies, and enjoying quite a lot of laughter together as we made Carson’s photos. (Big shout out to Kelli for being a most excellent photo assistant and toting around Carson’s clothing changes!)
Carson is a senior at Sentinel High School this year and he’s been involved in track, football and soccer. Though as of right now he’s taking a break from sports to focus more on work.
Initially Carson told me that he prefers photos where he doesn’t smile since he doesn’t much care for his smile, but pretty quickly into his session I learned that Carson’s got a great grin! He just needs someone to capture him in the moment where his smile is real and not forced. Which we did in spades! That said, Carson’s got some serious “slay” down too, so he can easily bounce back and forth from a happy grin to a smoldering gaze.
When Carson’s not busy with school, he loves to be outside spending time with his friends. Along with many Missoulians, one of his favorite things to do during the summer is to go floating and fishing – gotta love time on the water when it’s warm enough to enjoy it! And, when he’s not doing those things, he’s busy learning the guitar! All sorts of aspirations – I love it!
As of right now Carson would like to go to college after graduating from high school, but he’s not entirely sure what he wants to do post-college. He’s got a goal to travel to Japan within the next four years because he digs the Japanese culture and is toying with the idea of looking for a job there too!
Carson! What a treat to get to meet you and your mom! You did such a great job, and it was such a pleasure to get to make these photos for you. Promise me you’ll smile more for photos because, as I’ve said before, you’ve got a great, natural grin and shouldn’t hide it! Here’s to you, your senior year and all the exciting things ahead for you!
On the Docket:
Weddings, elopements, portraits and more! Keep an eye out!
